1955 Chrysler Falcon Concept Navigation
Virgil Exner left Studebaker in 1949 to head up Chrysler's Advanced Design Studio. While there, he combined his design excellence with the craftsmanship of Italy's Ghia Coachworks. This combination yielded some of the most beautiful and outrageous concept cars of the era.
One of the products of that partnership is the 1955 Chrysler Falcon. The Falcon is similar in size to both the Corvette and Thunderbird. The car, often considered one of Exner's best, rides on a shortened Chrysler 300 chassis. Power originally came from a 276 cubic-inch Hemi with 7.5:1 compression, producing 170 horsepower. The interior featured a split bench-style seat finished in burgundy leather, with a floor-mounted shifter for the two-speed PowerFlite transmission and a Nardi wooden steering wheel.
According to the current owner, the Falcon is a completely finished car, as opposed to a cobbled-up show car. It drives well, accelerating very strongly, but behaving in a very docile and polished manner.
